In a horrifying video that went viral on social media recently, a tiger can be seen jumping out of its enclosure when tourists get too close during a jungle safari. The 15-second clip was shared by Indian Forest Service officer Susanta Nanda, who took to social media to slam the carelessness of the people in the video. Nanda called the tourists "idiots" and said it was the "anger management" of the tiger that saved them this time, adding there is no guarantee it will happen again in the future.

In the video, the tourists, on open-hood cars, can be seen touring a jungle safari. They stop by to take pictures of the tiger, who was minding its own business behind a low wall before they intruded the space. Moments into the video, the tiger jumps on the wall and starts walking as the tourists can be seen blown away in horror. "When human brain shuts down & mouth keeps talking," Nanda captioned the video, which has since garnered more than 12,000 views.
Idiotitis...

Appreciate the anger management of the tiger. But that can’t be guaranteed in future. pic.twitter.com/dSG3z37fa8

And at a higher elevation than that jeep. Really close call.
The guide should lose his license.
Our intrusion has crossed all limits......

These hopeless should have been punished. Don't understand which location is this? Why mobile phones are allowed? What guide and driver is doing? How the gypsy stops so near to the wild animal?

State governments are busy in making money through tiger reserves bt no strict rule!
True , he could have pounced on them, then he would have been called man eater. Why do humans need to disturb animal. Moreover he is not in zoo

Can't Govt ban these type of Safaris, it looks more dangerous for wildlife. Just my thought
